Two Rusty Chairs and a Weekend Project

Today seemed to be a good day to wrap up some loose ends.  I bought two fabulous chippy-rusty garden chairs a year ago and they've been hanging out in the garage ever since.  



Yesterday I found some killer fabric at Hancock's and it was just the motivation I needed to get the chairs done!


So I grabbed my staple gun, plopped down in the floor, and covered two cushions.


Such a quick and simple project!


What took me so long??

Many chairs can provide comfortable seating but will not have an aesthetic appeal, making them undesirable to the typical customer. Plastic Chairs
